Chapter 1601: Caiwei Investigates the Case (2)
Mrs. Du was speechless. It turned out that the third child was a cunning little thing. He used his cuteness as a disguise and took advantage of people's unpreparedness to snatch what he wanted. He was so cunning at such a young age. He must be a smart one when he grows up!
When Caiwei hurried home, she happened to see this warm scene.
After not seeing them for two days, she really missed these chubby babies. When the children looked at her, their clear and bright eyes showed surprise. They stretched out their fat and short arms like lotus roots to her, babbling. Caiwei leaned down and kissed them one by one, then looked at them intently, with deep maternal love in her eyes...
When Mrs. Du saw her daughter coming back, she thought she came back from the hunting ground, and nagging: "The emperor is still in the hunting ground, why did you come back early? Oh, by the way, have you eaten? How are you wearing it in the hunting ground these two days? Did you sleep well... "
From last night to now, in order to hurry up and travel, Caiwei didn't eat anything, and of course didn't sleep. Even her swollen breasts were squeezed on the road. It was to save time and come back earlier, firstly, so that Nangong Yi wouldn't find out that she went out, and secondly, to see her babies as soon as possible!
After hearing what her mother said, she was actually a little hungry, so she said, "You missed the child, so you came back early without even eating."
"Not only did you not eat, I see you, I'm afraid you didn't even sleep well, you too, the child is left with me, what are you still thinking about, look at you, you've been out for two days, you've lost weight..."
Du looked at the dark circles under her daughter's eyes, complained distressedly, and ordered people to prepare food for her.
Mu Zhongqing was on leave today, and when he heard that his daughter was back, he came to talk to her.
Although Mu Zhongqing's official position is not high now, he is the father-in-law of the current dynasty. He is qualified to go to the hunting ground, but Mu Zhongqing declined. He is a gentle and kind person, and he can't stand the bloody scenes of shooting animals for fun. Instead of watching the innocent animals die tragically, it is better to stay at home with his wife and children.
"Wei'er, there is something I want to discuss with you."
Mu Zhongqing sat steadily on the carved rosewood armrest chair, slowly picking the tea leaves in the teacup. He wore a sauce-colored Shu brocade round-necked robe embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns, a pair of white-bottomed black satin official boots, and a double fish purse embroidered for him by Du Shi tied around his waist, with a South Pearl tassel accessory underneath.
Nowadays, his life is getting better and better, and he has become much fatter. He is no longer the poor scholar with a pale face and thin body in Mujia Village, and looks more and more like an official!
"What's the matter!"
Caiwei teased the three little soft buns, and couldn't bear to move her eyes away.
"It's like this."
Mu Zhongqing coughed and said: "During this period, Queen Mother Mo has been sending people to find me, asking me to talk to Fei'er and ask her to persuade Ziqi to marry Princess Chaoyue. This matter makes Dad very embarrassed. Dad doesn't like his son-in-law to marry someone else, especially a princess of noble status; but if Dad doesn't agree, it will seem that Dad is disrespectful to the Queen Mother, and there is suspicion of serious disrespect, so..."
"Don't worry about this, Dad, I'll go talk to her!"
Caiwei's eyes turned cold. In the past few months, seeing that Queen Mother Mo treated her and the children very well, she thought she had thought it through and changed for the better. Unexpectedly, she actually secretly put pressure on her father behind her back. If she had known that they were planning to do this, she might as well have instigated Nangong Yi to marry Nangong Yu to the Xianbei to make peace. She is really a dead man who cannot be saved!
